Mama June and her family attended Anna ‘Chickadee’ Cardwell funeral

On Wednesday funeral of Anna ‘Chickadee’ Cardwell was held. She was the older daughter who was 29 years old and she died because of cancer.

Arriving at Williams Funeral Home of Gordon in Georgia, Shannon was accompanied by her other kids, Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson and Lauryn "Pumpkin" Efird, who were captured on camera appearing solemn.

Both Cardwell's 11-year-old daughter Kaitlyn and her husband Eldridge Toney, whom she secretly married in March, were present.


There were some instructions for everybody who attended the funeral which said everybody should leave their phones in the car and after a point, no photos were allowed.

A picture of Cardwell was included in the program with the poem "Broken Chain."

The poem was to understand that That morning, we had no idea that God would call your name. We cherished you in life, and we continue to do so in death. Even though we were devastated to lose you, you weren't alone when God called you home. A piece of us went with you.

She passed away after battling with stage 4 adrenal carcinoma in January. She battled the disease for almost 10 months and her family was always there beside her to support her in this difficult time.
